Budget Report Export Category wrong

jtgostars

It appears there is some misdirection or incorrect category mapping in the database when exporting a historical budget to Excel.

I exported my 2025 budget to Excel and there was a random category that showed up. I have attached screen shots of the budget in Quicken I exported and the same budget in Excel that has the incorrect label for one of the categories.

I did try recovering a backup version of my Quicken data file and it does the exact same thing. Please DO NOT suggest the NASA fix of uninstalling and reinstalling Quicken that would be a ridiculous solution and would only be another example reinforcing what a "buggy and defective" software solution Quicken really is

This has been a problem for years. I think I reported this issue in beta testing probably 10 years ago and nothing has ever been done about it. It seems that whenever you have a top level category that contains "Medical" in the title Quicken will stick "Employer Benefit" in front of it when exporting to Excel (I actually have two categories that do this). It doesn't do it when exporting to a PDF file.
